Depending on your specific needs, you might want to keep your eye on my
project (http://www.weldae.org). I haven't posted the source yet, but
I'm trying very hard to get the first release with source out soon.
I'm building something very similar to what your asking for. Nothing is
hard coded
I am pretty negative about the combo as a control, not just the GTK
combo. Widget sets don't have much of a choice but to include it since
it's considered a core control, but as a developer, I try to avoid it if
I can.
As has been discussed previously, the problem with the combo as a
control is
My current project requires that I write wrappers around all common GTK
and Win32 .NET controls to give them a common functionality set. Sort
of like what wxWindows would do but much much more simple with much less
functionality.
I mention this because with the exception of the GtkComboBox
A reasonable chunk, but then by the time a GtkWidget gets all its signal
bindings,
extra data, and other stuff, a GC probably isn't all that much extra. ;)
Thanks for both of you that responded. Sounds like I don't need to worry much
based
on the fact that it sounds like I can't switch a GC
Thanks Tor for the helpful response. This seems a lot more sane to me. More
comments follow:
The manpage for XCreateGC() says The GC can be used with any
destination drawable having the same root and depth as the specified
drawable.
Just to clarify, root is root X window? So I could
This is just a guess since I'm not in front of my development workstation. You

straight forward and I've already got the border drawing working from

This did the trick. I didn't think to try just type casting it. I was
thinking too complex, along the lines that there was a magic GTK cast
function like GTK_WIDGET().

I've seen this asked before a while back with no response, so I thought
I'd give it a try. Google hasn't been any help at all.

Disregard this question. Apparently a treeview without a model doesn't
emit the button-press-event. I can live with that, just have to
re-factor my code a bit.

I also have a problem detecting a mouse click on a treeview control.
I'm currently trying the widget event button-press-event, but that
doesn't seem to fire.

Thanks for this link. I too have been looking for something like this.
For some reason the configure script requires GTK 2.6.8. FC4 only ships
with 2.6.7, so this is a pretty steep requirement. I hacked the
configure script to only require 2.6.7 and it worked fine.
I also was able to get it
I need to partially disable a checkbox control. I don't want the
checkbox to toggle when a user clicks on it but I want the click event

I've thought about using the click event to just toggle the control

Maybe you should write one custom GtkContainer for each type

The problem is really about the container widget and the

First, I'm 100% with you on this issue. The product I support does this

This is the best suggestion I've ever heard as a replacement for the
horrible button menu hack. Maybe this will keep the parent poster from
adding this hack to yet another piece of software.
The only downside I could see is if the list is very long. I think for

I must be missing something very obvious, but for the life of me I can't
find it. I'm using a GtkVscale widget with FC2 GTK2.4 like so:
control = gtk_vscale_new(NULL);
gtk_scale_set_digits(GTK_SCALE(control), 0);
gtk_range_set_range(GTK_RANGE(control), 0, 100);
The expose event wouldn't work for me either unless, as you did, I
returned TRUE. I even tried calling _after all the other expose events
with no luck. I ended up having to set the background pixmap on show
of the window. I have no way of knowing if it will work on Windows
though.
On Fri,
Thanks Brian, you've gotten me very close to solving this problem. When
I use window-window instead of getting the root window, I now see my
background image for short periods of time when portions of the window
are newly exposed such as during resize and when other windows are moved
over it just
I got despirate and hooded up the expose-event to reset the BG image
and this works. Seems a bit excessive, surely there's a better event to
use? FWIW, I'm using the regular expose the gets called before the
default handler.
